It may vary from state to state, just like some driving rules do, but we should have those laws for cycling. That way, we wouldn't have doubts and questions like this here on Bike Forums.
As cycling becomes more prevalent and gains in popularity, there will become an ever increasing need for more precise and judicious cycling laws, upon which we shall be held accountable.
In the future, there will be no doubt and no question. There will just be a code to follow, written about cycling on bridges within our state.
Every sate in the Union has a "Rules of the Road" Book for ALL vehicles drivers to follow that INCLUDE bicycles!
also.......
For those struggling with the fact that passing (overtaking) on a bridge is against the rules of the road for bicycles ,as well as motor vehicles, should look it up in their states motor vehicle code (which includes bicycles) or google it to see that overtaking on a bridge is unsafe and illegal !
